The income of the farm In 1911 was $681.85 and in 1910 $557.31. The net cost of supporting the poor of the town aggregated $1.21 per capita by the census of 1910. In 1880 the amount was only 36 cents per capita. In 1894 the cost per capita in Rockingham was 95 cents, while the average that year of Mont-pelier, Brattleboro, Rutland and Green-Held was only 32 cents. The question may be asked, "Why Is Rockingham pauperized to an extent of three times what other similar towns and cities are?" The expense is increasing much faster than our population Increases.

The health officer of the town, Dr. E. S. Allbee, reports more than the usual number of contagious diseases during the year: Diphtheria 25, scarlet fever 16, mumps 74, measles 12, chicken-pox 18, typhoid fever 13, pneumonia 6, erysipelas 1, all requiring the quarantining of 107 places and the fumigation of 49. An interesting fact reported by Dr.

Allbee is that while he was not able to trace the source of the first case of diphtheria he Is sure the disease was spread by what is termed diphtheria carriers, that Is, persons who have the germs in their throats and show no symptoms of the disease. In the last epidemic he requested the physicians to secure negative cultures from all persons In the different families, whether ill or not, before the quarantine was removed, and three were found who carried disease germs without showing the least signs of disease. Dr. Allbee makes an exhaustive and interesting report. Of the cases of typhoid fever four were- contracted elsewhere, two from river water and five from polluted cisterns.

Of the 13 deaths from tuberculosis three were non-residents. Of the 109 deaths occurring In town four generations. The Bible study class held a valentine social Wednesday evening in the church Mr. and Mrs. Johnson are among the best of neighbors and friends and their parlors.
